Step into the timeless heart of Paris on a 3-hour private guided Medieval Paris Tour that weaves together the city’s most treasured landmarks. Begin at the radiant Сент-Шапель, stroll through the serene streets of Остров Сен-Луи, and conclude at the newly reopened Notre-Dame Cathedral — with the option to ascend its legendary towers for breathtaking views over Paris.

This exclusive experience blends history, architecture, and elegance in one unforgettable tour.

Stop 1: Sainte-Chapelle

Ваше путешествие начинается в Сент-Шапель, one of Paris’s most extraordinary Gothic masterpieces. Built by King Louis IX in the 13th century to house the Holy Relics, this royal chapel dazzles with soaring stained-glass windows that flood the space with celestial light in every hue imaginable.

Your private guide will help you decode the biblical scenes hidden in its 1,113 glass panels, revealing stories of devotion, craftsmanship, and royal ambition.

Are Sainte-Chapelle and Notre-Dame the same thing?

No — Sainte-Chapelle is an independent royal chapel located nearby, within the Palais de Justice complex on the Île de la Cité.

Sainte-Chapelle is a place that feels almost otherworldly. As sunlight pours through the stained glass, the chapel becomes a living kaleidoscope — a fitting beginning to your day among Paris’s sacred treasures.

Stop 2: The Serenity of Île Saint-Louis

From Sainte-Chapelle, your private guide will lead you across the bridge to Остров Сен-Луи, one of the city’s most exclusive and tranquil districts.

Lined with aristocratic 17th-century mansions, artisan boutiques, and elegant riverside cafés, this island feels like a world away from the bustle of modern Paris. Stroll its cobbled streets and admire the Seine views.

Is Île Saint-Louis worth visiting?

Absolutely. It offers a glimpse into the Paris of the past — intimate, refined, and steeped in quiet beauty.

What is Île Saint-Louis famous for?

Its romantic atmosphere, classical architecture, and riverside charm, as well as its long tradition of Parisian luxury living.

Stop 3: The Rebirth of a Legend — Notre-Dame de Paris

Your final stop is one of the world’s most iconic landmarks — the Notre-Dame Cathedral, which triumphantly reopened to the public in December 2024 after years of meticulous restoration.

Step inside this masterpiece of Gothic architecture and admire its radiant rose windows, ribbed vaults, and soaring nave. Your expert guide will share fascinating insights about the cathedral’s history, its miraculous restoration, and the enduring symbolism that makes it the heart of Paris.

What is the status of Notre-Dame Cathedral?

Since December 2024, Notre-Dame is open again to visitors — and Carsons Travel Concierge can organize частные экскурсии inside the cathedral.

Optional Add-On to Medieval Paris Tour: Climb the Cathedral Towers

Since September 20, 2025, the Notre-Dame towers have officially reopened to the public — and we can include this as part of your private tour experience. Tickets are not sold on-site and sell out quickly online, so advance booking is essential.

You’ll climb to the top of the south tower (with access to the north tower available as well), where you’ll encounter the cathedral’s famous chimeras, the grand Emmanuel Bell, and panoramic views across Paris.

Can you go up the towers at Notre-Dame?

Yes — the towers are open again, and Carsons Travel Concierge can secure your timed tickets as part of your private experience.

Intricate gargoyles, medieval carvings, the cathedral’s largest bell, and one of the most spectacular city views imaginable.
